Chapter 48: Doubts, Calls, and the Dessert Shop
Inside the high-end dessert shop on the cruise ship
A teenager and a girl sat down face to face, and there were quite a sumptuous dessert breakfast in front of both of them.
"I'll say... How could you, classmate Xingchuan, eat so calmly..." The young man who looked a little tired was muttering powerlessly, and his face, which looked quite young, showed a different expression from the past.
"Since things have happened, it is useless to complain meaninglessly. Do whatever you should do at this time so that you won't get into panic." The girl opposite was eating the dessert in front of her gracefully and drinking the black tea shake.
"Well... this black tea milkshake looks good too... Although it does not have the endless aftertaste of black tea, the lubrication of the milkshake and the unique feeling of the black tea are mixed together... it is so great!", the girl couldn't help but murmur.
"..." Looking at the girl's addicted look, the boy didn't know what to say. What is more important at this time is how to face the situation outside, right?
"I said... Is this world affected by this? I just watched TV... and found that it was different from usual..." The boy raised his head, looked at the morning news that was playing, and couldn't help but say.
The LCD TV hanging on the wall was playing an international news program in an orderly manner. The boy still remembered that he had been seeing this program for a while and knew a little about the usual content.
The beautiful anchor who was supposed to be a temperamental girl was now a high school student who was giving a speech as the president of a certain country. In the outdoor broadcast, many incredible things can be seen. For example, the middle school girl holding a hatchet was taken away by the police with a broken face, a six-year-old girl was driving a bus, and a teacher wearing a maid outfit was in class, etc.
In short, the world seen by the boys and girls at this time was completely distorted and confused, but those who were in it didn't know all this.
"That...Senior Xingchuan... We are the only two of us who are sober here, right?" Kuroko, who was in a young state, said timidly. No matter how he suddenly entered this abnormal world, he would feel a little unhappy.
"No... to be precise... it is strange that the two of us still maintain normal cognition at this time. Just like them, the distortion of our cognition is the situation that ordinary people will fall into." Chen's vague gap may be because of the interference of the laws on his body, and the fall of the angel did not successfully distort his cognition, and Kuroko was probably implicated so he was also normal.
"Then... then... Xingchuan classmate... what should we do now? Should we continue like this in the future?" the boy asked with a sad face.
At this time, Chen, who was using the female body, covered his face and laid a barrier of air twisting around him. He looked at the blacksword who was using his body helplessly and said:
"...We don't know the reason for this happening yet... How to act? I'll contact the Academy City later to see if there is any news there."
Chen's words might have made Kuroko feel a little relieved, and the expression on her face also became restrained.
The expression on my face just now was really not an illusion... Could it be that I didn't notice that I usually had too few expressions, and my expression was quite rich? If the scene just now was seen by Riko and the others... I would probably be stunned. Chen couldn't help but think of these things as he looked at the scene just now.
"That... then... what should we do now?" asked Kuroko, who borrowed Chen's body.
"I feel a little hungry after having breakfast... It's a rare feeling..." Chen looked at the body he is using now incredible, thinking so much.
His body has long exceeded the boundaries of normal people. In the past, he rarely felt the feelings of ordinary people, such as hunger and sleepiness, cold and warmth, which were all too strong because of his overly strong body.
At this time, Chen, who was using Heizi's body, suddenly felt a sense of happiness. I felt this kind of life occasionally... Maybe it was good... Chen thought so.
"Student Xingchuan...Student Xingchuan... Why do you feel like you are thinking of something strange..." The boy knocked on the table and said.
"I just thought about something a little bit." Chen answered casually.
"Um...but...Secretary Xingchuan...Your body... seems much better than ordinary people..." Kuroko suddenly asked this question, and then kept staring at Chen, who was already a woman's appearance.
"Shichuan is not a human being from somewhere, right... the difference between the body and the normal person is so big... or it is perfect in some aspects... No matter the functions of the body, it is far beyond the level of ordinary people." Kuroko also understood the differences in this body and said with great care.
"Where are artificial humans that are so powerful... If they can create lv5, they will probably be able to create superpowers to conquer the world." Chen complained weakly after eating the dessert in front of him.
"Actually, this is my own secret, but it is not convenient to talk to Shirai classmate." Chen did not want to reveal his identity as a traveler. Although the two of them have a considerable degree of cooperation, their relationship was not good enough to reveal Chen's secrets. Even Chen only planned to return to the world of Feitan to tell Riko in detail, and maybe he would mention it to Miyasu Shizuku a little, right?
"Hey... Xingchuan's past is becoming more and more curious..." Although Chen was not willing to say it, this attracted Kuroko's attention more and more, and he couldn't help but continue to ask. Those who appeared in the school city for some reason and quickly improved to lv5's rough stone ability, their ability to use space, their behaviors and ideas are different from ordinary people, and their bodies are also different from ordinary people. Together, these make Kuroko feel more and more curious.
"In fact, there are nothing... but there are many unforgettable things..." Chen's movement suddenly stopped and said with a pause.
stare……
"Hey... don't look at me with that look... It feels uncomfortable to be stared at by your own body..." Chen had a cold war and said like this.
"Okay... I'm still very curious in fact... But it seems that Xingchuan has many reasons... I don't want to say it very much... It's obvious..." Perhaps because of my body, Chen could not hear the girl's last murmur at this time.
"Let's get rid of breakfast first! It's so happy... This feeling of constantly filling the hunger in the body..." Chen picked up another piece of cake and said with great pleasure.
"I have no appetite at all..." Kuroko said helplessly with her head.
"Ah... Then... I'm not polite..." The girl was eating...
…………
On the deck in front of the boat
A girl was standing by the railing, but at this time, no one around was paying attention to her, or she could not notice her existence at all.
The girl was talking to someone using headphones with a microphone.
"Oh, Mr. Chairman, good morning." The girl said calmly.
"You should not be the person in charge of contacting you?", such a question came from the other end of the phone.
"Ah... this is all because of an unexpected situation... The school city should be affected now, right?" the girl said slowly.
"...You mean? The school city is indeed affected... there are still many problems..." Another helpless voice came, maybe he was also feeling a headache for the chaos at this time? Although the angel will replace their respective messages when he falls to replace his identities, it will inevitably bring considerable trouble to the normal social operation.
"Indeed... the effect of this magic... is really involved in a wide range of things..." Chen, who was borrowing the girl's body, sighed.
"It turned out to be you... Xingchuan Tak... you were also partially affected. Your body was in tune with Kuroko Shirai." Yaresta quickly guessed what was happening here.
"In general, I'm annoyed... I didn't expect that the technique had such a great influence..." Chen sighed in a female voice.
"After all, it's a magical matter... they can only deal with these." Yaresta's tone was unclear, making it impossible to guess what attitude he was using to treat this incident.
Chen was silent for a while. Of course, he knew Yaresta’s original identity. As the greatest magician of the 20th century, but in the end he defected to the scientific side, would he be caught off guard by this technique? Of course, it is unlikely that he did not see that he was in Japan and the closest areas to the fall of the angel. Hasn’t Yaresta still had nothing to do now?
Chen was just a little confused about what kind of mentality Yaresta had when he was watching like this. Yaresta must have the ability to relieve the current situation. Even if he didn't need to take action by himself, he could just use missiles and other places to blow up the place where the magic was performed.
"So how long will this situation last?" Chen finally asked lightly.
"Oh? This depends on how far the guys on the magic side can do? Maybe they can't unlock this technique." Yaresta was still saying unclear words, which made Chen, who knew some of the situation, feel a little headache.
